Note 1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements, and accompanying notes thereto, included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.

The results of operations for the current interim period are not necessarily
indicative of results to be expected for the entire current year.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
presentation. These changes had no impact on previously reported earnings or
stockholders' equity.

Note 2. RESTATEMENT

In its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999 ("Fiscal 1999"),
the Company has restated and reclassified its consolidated financial
statements for the nine month transition period ended December 31, 1998
("Transition Period 1998") and the fiscal year ended March 31, 1998 ("Fiscal
1998").

Unaudited quarterly financial data for Fiscal 1999 has been restated and
reclassified. The effect of such reclassifications and the restatements on the
first quarter of Fiscal 1999 statement of operations line items is shown in
the following table:

(a) $763 of this adjustment represents the reversal of revenue which was
reflected in the Company's 1999 Form 10-K as reversed in the second and third
quarters of 1999 rather than the first quarter of 1999.


Note 3. WARRANTS

In conjunction with the May 1996 and January 1997 private equity placements and
conversion of a $1,500 outstanding promissory note, the Company issued units,
each consisting of one share of common stock and one redeemable warrant to
purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $7.50 per share,
subject to certain anti-dilutive adjustments.

Between January 1, 2000 and January 16, 2000, all remaining such warrants,
which were due to expire on January 16, 2000, were exercised for 595,700
shares of common stock generating approximately $4,467 in cash.

                                  7

<PAGE>


In connection with the May 1996 private equity placement described above, the
Company issued a warrant to the placement agent (the "Agent's Warrant") to
purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $5.00 per share. The
Agent's Warrant is not subject to redemption and expires May 1, 2001. At
March 31, 2000, 11,450 shares may still be purchased under this warrant.



Note 4 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

During 1999, the Company granted selected executives and key employees 466,000
incentive stock option awards whose vesting is contingent upon increases in the
Company's stock price and other performance based measures, such as achieving
specified revenues for new products. For these options, vesting generally occurs
when the Company's stock price equals $9.00, $12.00, $15.00 and $20.00 per
share. The exercise price of each option, which has a ten year life, is equal to
the market price of the Company's stock on the date of grant. Compensation cost
is measured and recorded for these options using variable plan accounting as
prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25 at the end of each quarterly reporting period
and is subsequently adjusted for increases or decreases in the Company's stock
price until the exercise date. Compensation expense related to these incentive
options of approximately $395 was recognized during the three month period ended
March 31, 2000. At March 31, 2000, 181,125 of the incentive options were vested.

The Company has granted nonstatutory and incentive options outside the
Company's stock option plan to persons who were not directors, officers or
employees to purchase up to an aggregate of 74,333 shares. These options are
granted at prices determined by the Board of Directors (no less than 100
percent of the market price). The options must be exercised within ten years
of the date of the grant. Included in these options are 30,000 options which
the Company granted in the first quarter of 2000, 43,333 options which the
Company granted in 1999 and 1,000 options granted prior to 1999.

These non-employee options were valued using the fair value method as
prescribed by SFAS No. 123. The majority of these options are performance
based awards, with no service commitment and subject to vesting only if the
Company's stock price reaches a certain level. At March 31, 2000, 31,668 of
the non-employee options were vested. The Company has recognized compensation
expense of approximately $123 related to these options during the three month
period ended March 31, 2000. Assumptions used in valuing the options are the
same as those for employee options except the 10-year contractual life was
substituted for the expected life of the option as required by SFAS No. 123.

On August 20, 1999, the Company granted a two year warrant to Hewlett -Packard
to purchase 4.9% of the Company's outstanding common stock for $15.00 per share
during the first year of the warrant and $20.00 per share during the second year
of the warrant. The Company also granted a second warrant to Hewlett-Packard
under the same agreement for the purchase of 4.5% of the Company's outstanding
common stock during the second year of the term of the agreement for $20.00 per
share. The number of shares purchased upon exercise of the warrants will be
measured based on the outstanding common stock as of the most recent quarter or
year-end as


                                       8
<PAGE>



reported on the Company's report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K. At March 31, 2000,
the warrants issued to Hewlett - Packard represent the rights to purchase
527,414 and 484,360 shares, respectively. For both warrants, if the fair value
of the common stock is greater than the purchase price, Hewlett-Packard may
elect to receive shares equal to the value of the warrant in lieu of exercising
the warrant with cash.

The Company also issued warrants in connection with the InfoSpace.com Internet
Promotion Agreement dated August 31, 1999. The first warrant is for the purchase
of 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $15.00 per share
if exercised during the first year of the agreement or $20.00 per share if
exercised during the second year of the agreement. The warrant vests as follows:
62,500 on September 30, 1999, 62,500 on December 31, 1999 and 125,000 on March
31, 2000. The Company also granted a second warrant to InfoSpace.com under the
same agreement for the purchase of 4.9% of the Company's outstanding common
stock at August 31, 1999, on a fully diluted basis including conversion of this
warrant. This warrant issued to Infospace.com represents the rights to purchase
526,572 shares at a price of $15.00 per share if exercised during the first year
of the agreement or $20.00 per share if exercised during the second year of the
agreement. The second warrant is exercisable in lieu of the Company paying
invoices rendered by InfoSpace.com.

Expense of $443 was recognized during the three month period ended March 31,
2000 related to these warrants.

Note 5. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") is equal to net income (loss) divided
by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the
period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999 were 11,262,276 and
7,859,000, respectively. Diluted EPS recognizes the dilutive effect of common
stock equivalents and is equal to net income divided by the sum of the
weighted average number of shares outstanding and common stock equivalents.
The Company's common stock equivalents consist of stock options, common stock
warrants, and convertible preferred stock. Consistent with previous
standards, SFAS No. 128 prohibits inclusion of the impact of common stock
equivalents in the calculation of EPS when inclusion results in antidilution.
Accordingly, for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and March 31, 1999,
basic and diluted EPS are equal because all potentially issuable common
shares would be antidilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
March 31, 1999, there were 231,506, and 715,730 shares, respectively,
potentially issuable with respect to stock options, warrants and convertible
preferred stock, which could dilute Basic EPS in the future.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
financial statements and the notes thereto included in Part 1 Item 1 of this
Quarterly Report and the financial statements and notes thereto, and
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the


                                       9
<PAGE>


fiscal year ended December 31, 1999. All dollar amounts in this Management
Discussion and Analysis are in thousands. As more fully described in the Notes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements, certain financial information in
this filing has been restated to correct previously issued financial
statements. The discussion in this item reflects those restatements.

                               FINANCIAL CONDITION


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the three months ended March 31, 2000 the Company experienced negative
operating cash flow of $2,165. The Company funded cash used in operating
activities and investing activities primarily through the use of cash proceeds
from the exercise of stock warrants and employee stock options of
approximately $4,490.

Although the cash proceeds resulting from the exercise of stock warrants and
options provide the Company with unused sources of capital, the Company
continues to experience operating losses as well as negative cash flows. In
addition, the Company's current product strategy has added the design and
development of ebix.com, which was launched on September 8, 1999; the Company is
pursuing the successful commercialization of this e-commerce insurance portal.

Although transactions have occurred on the website in 1999 and 2000, because the
Company has not processed the charges, which are de minimis in amount, no
revenue has been recognized to date. Transactions have not occurred on the
website for ebix.link. Because the Company does not have capital at this time to
promote the website, the Company cannot predict whether, when or how the product
will generate substantial revenues.

The Company believes its cash balances, available credit facility and funds from
operations will be sufficient to meet all of its anticipated cash requirements
for at least the next 12 months. However, the Company is currently faced with
liquidity concerns. In order to meet the projected cash requirements of the
business, it will be necessary for the Company to increase its revenue sources
beyond those accessed during the past two years or secure financing sources,
beyond those currently available, in order to continue as a going concern after
the 2000 fiscal year.

Management believes that the required financing sources to operate the business
as a going concern will be secured, although there can be no assurances that
such financing will be available or that it will be available on terms
satisfactory to the Company.

Management believes that there may be additional infusions of cash from the
exercise of outstanding stock warrants although recent declines in the Company's
stock price make this improbable. Management will endeavor to secure the
necessary financing from other sources. Such sources could include one or more
equity investors. Management intends to seek the required financing sources that
are necessary in order to continue to operate the business.

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES COSTS - The Company has incurred substantial professional
services costs related to the restatement of its financial statements for the
years ended December 31, 1998 and March 31, 1998 as filed in the Company's
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 on June 1, 2000. Such costs
which will exceed $1,000 are anticipated to be recognized in the second quarter
of 2000.

DEFERRED REVENUE - The Company traditionally invoices software maintenance and
support in advance of providing the service. The software maintenance fees are
recorded as deferred

                                       10
<PAGE>

revenue and recognized ratably over the term of the software maintenance
agreement. The Company's current liabilities at March 31, 2000 include deferred
revenue of $3,176 and deposit liabilities of $2,281. The liability is satisfied
through normal ongoing operations of the Company's service organization and
generally does not require payment to third parties.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT - At March 31, 2000, the Company employed 29 full-time
employees engaged in product development activities. These activities
include research and development of software enhancements, improving usefulness,
adaptation to newer software and hardware technologies, and increasing
responsiveness. Product development expenditures were $1,069 for the three month
period ended March 31, 2000.

BANK LINE OF CREDIT - Effective January 1997, the Company established a line of
credit up to $4,000 subject to borrowing base limits. Borrowings are secured by
accounts receivable and certain other assets. The agreement provides for a
minimum monthly interest at the bank's prime lending rate plus two and one-half
percent (2.5%) on the greater of the actual amount outstanding or $1,600. The
agreement contains certain covenants including the maintenance of a minimum net
worth of $2,000 and restrictions upon certain activities by the Company without
the approval of the bank including the incurrence of senior debt, certain
mergers or acquisitions, and the payment of dividends. The October 1999
amendment to the bank line of credit provides for a forbearance period until the
maturity date. Since July 1999 the Company has had no borrowings but, the
Company is nevertheless obligated, until the January 31, 2001 maturity date, to
pay to the lender minimum interest on the sum of $1,600 at prime plus 2.5%.

NON-COMPETE NOTE PAYABLE - The Company, in the first quarter of 2000 paid a $120
installment (principal and interest) on an 11.75% interest bearing unsecured
note. The remaining installment of $120 is due in the first quarter of 2001.

WARRANTS - Between January 1, 2000 and January 16, 2000, the remaining warrants
related to the January 1997 private placement issue of warrants to acquire
1,126,100 shares of common stock, which were due to expire on January 16, 2000,
were exercised resulting in the issuance of 595,700 shares of common stock
generating approximately $4,467 in cash.

In connection with a May 1996 private equity placement, the Company issued a
warrant to the placement agent (the "Agent's Warrant") to purchase 200,000
shares of the Company's common stock at $5.00 per share. The Agent's Warrant is
not subject to redemption and expires May 1, 2001. At March 31, 2000, 11,450
shares may still be purchased under this warrant.

On August 20, 1999, the Company granted a two year warrant to Hewlett -Packard
to purchase 4.9% of the Company's outstanding common stock for $15.00 per share
during the first year of the warrant and $20.00 per share during the second year
of the warrant. The Company also granted a second warrant to Hewlett-Packard
under the same agreement for the purchase of 4.5% of the Company's outstanding
common stock during the second year of the term of the agreement for $20.00 per
share. The number of shares purchased upon exercise of the warrants will be
measured based on the outstanding common stock as of the most recent quarter or
year-end as reported in the Company' s report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K. At
March 31, 2000, the warrants issued to Hewlett-Packard represent the rights to
purchase 527,414 and 484,360 shares, respectively. For both warrants, if the
fair value of the common stock is greater than the


                                       11
<PAGE>



purchase price, Hewlett-Packard may elect to receive shares equal to the value
of the warrant in lieu of exercising the warrant with cash.

The Company also issued warrants in connection with the InfoSpace.com Internet
Promotion Agreement dated August 31, 1999. The first warrant is for the purchase
of 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $15.00 per share
if exercised during the first year of the agreement or $20.00 per share if
exercised during the second year of the agreement. The warrant vests as follows:
62,500 on September 30, 1999, 62,500 on December 31, 1999 and 125,000 on March
31, 2000. The Company also granted a second warrant to InfoSpace.com under the
same agreement for the purchase of 4.9% of the Company's outstanding common
stock at August 31, 1999, on a fully diluted basis including conversion of this
warrant. This warrant issued to Infospace.com represents the rights to purchase
526,572 shares at a price of $15.00 per share if exercised during the first year
of the agreement or $20.00 per share if exercised during the second year of the
agreement. The second warrant is exercisable in lieu of the Company paying
invoices rendered by InfoSpace.com.

COMMON STOCK OPTIONS - During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Company
received approximately $23 from the exercise of outstanding stock options. As of
March 31, 2000, there are outstanding vested options to purchase approximately
433,335 shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $5.75 per share.
The majority of outstanding options have expiration dates in excess of five
years from March 31, 2000.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS - In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("Statement
133"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This
standard requires that an entity recognize derivatives as either assets or
liabilities on its balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. As
a result of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date
of Statement 133," the Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter of
2001. Based on current circumstances, the Company does not believe that the
application of Statement 133 will have a material effect on the Company's
financial condition or results of operations.

EURO CONVERSION - Effective January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member
countries of the European Union (the "participating countries") have agreed to
adopt a new common legal currency (the "euro"). The participating countries
established fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies
(the "legacy currencies") and the euro. Following the introduction of the euro,
the legacy currencies are scheduled to remain legal tender in the participating
countries as denominations of the euro between January 1, 1999 and January 1,
2002 (the "transition period"). During the transition period transactions may be
settled using either the euro or the participating country's legacy currency on
a "no compulsion, no prohibition" basis. Conversion rates will no longer be
computed directly from one legacy currency to another but rather will utilize a
"triangulation" method specified by European Union regulations whereby payments
made in a legacy currency are converted to the euro and subsequently converted
to the recipient's desired legacy currency. Beginning January 1, 2002, the
participating countries will issue new euro-denominated bills and coins for use
in cash transactions. No later than July 1, 2002, the participating countries
will withdraw all bills and

                                       12

coins denominated in legacy currencies such that legacy currencies will no
longer be legal tender for any transactions, completing the euro conversion.

The Company currently has no bank accounts denominated in any legacy currency
and has not entered into any material transactions denominated in any legacy
currency. The Company has produced enhancements to certain software products
marketed in Europe to accommodate the euro conversion process (the "euro
module"). The cost to develop the euro module was not material and it will be
provided at minimal cost to existing customers under maintenance agreements.
Management believes the euro module allows for the continued marketing and sale
of the Company's products to customers requiring euro conversion capabilities.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

TOTAL REVENUE - The Company's revenue is derived from the licensing and sale of
proprietary software and third party software ("Software") and from professional
services, maintenance services, and support services ("Services"). Professional
services include consulting, implementation, training and project management
provided to the Company's customers with installed systems and those in the
process of installing systems. Total revenue is comprised of software revenue
and service revenue. No revenue has yet been recorded for the Company's ebix.com
website.

Total revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 decreased $811 or 22.1% from
the comparable quarter of the prior year.

SOFTWARE REVENUE - The Company's current product strategy is centered on a new
generation of products, collectively referred to as the ebix (formerly "cd")
product line and are comprised of ebix.global (formerly "cd.global"), a modular,
state of the art, agency management solution providing flexibility and the
ability to handle unstructured data and complex risk, ebix.com, a website, and
ebix.one (formerly "cd.one"), a structured system utilizing many features of the
Company's previous products.

The Company also has six "legacy" products including: INfinity, INSIGHT,
PC-ELITE, Insurnet, SMART, and Vista. The legacy products provide basic
functions such as policy administration, claims handling, accounting, and
financial reporting. Current legacy products will be maintained and supported as
long as there is adequate economic and strategic justification. Customers
utilizing legacy products will continue to be encouraged to migrate to newer
products.

Software revenue is comprised of revenue from the sale of ebix (formerly "cd")
products, current legacy products, and other third party software. During the
second quarter of Fiscal 1997, the Company discontinued the sale and marketing
of computer hardware. The sale of hardware was discontinued in order to focus
the Company's resources on the development and sale of software and services.
Subsequent to the Company's exit from the hardware sector, the Company continues
to receive commissions from hardware vendors for product referrals although this
is not a material source of revenue for the Company. This commission is included
in other income.

ebix.mall is expected to generate revenues through transaction fees and
acceptance fees (currently, charges payable by an agent, broker or carrier, as
the case may be, are $1.00 upon quoting and $20.00 upon processing a sale of a
policy through the Company's site). ebix.link is expected to generate revenues
through transaction fees. Although transactions have occurred on the website in
2000, because the Company has not processed the charges, which are de minimis in
amount, no revenue has been recognized to date. Transactions have not occurred
on the website for ebix.link.

Total software revenue for the quarter increased $14 or 4.0% from the comparable
quarter of the prior year.

SERVICES REVENUE - Total services revenue for the quarter decreased $825 or
24.9% from the comparable quarter of the prior year. This decrease is due to
a decrease in support revenue associated with legacy products and decreases
in consulting and custom programming revenue.

SOFTWARE COSTS - Cost of Software revenue includes the cost of third party
software and the amortization of purchased software cost.

Total software costs for the quarter decreased $125 or 64.1% from the
comparable quarter of the prior year. This decrease is due to a decrease in
third party sales and the costs associated with such sales.

SERVICES AND OTHER COSTS - Cost of Services revenue includes costs associated
with support, consulting, implementation and training services.

Total services and other costs for the quarter decreased $948 or 35.9% from
the comparable quarter of the prior year. This decrease is related to the
reduction in staffing levels for consultants, trainers and support staff.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES - Total product development expenses for the
quarter increased $111 or 11.6% from the comparable quarter of the prior
year. This increase is related to the development efforts associated with the
website.

SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES - Total sales and marketing expenses for the
quarter increased $702 or 111.4 % from the comparable quarter of the prior
year. This increase is attributable to $565 of expense associated with
warrants issued to third parties during 1999 and the ebix.com product
promotion.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES - Total general and administrative
expenses for the quarter decreased $204 or 11.4 % from the comparable quarter
of the prior year. This decrease is due to a reduction in staffing levels
partially offset by $396 of compensation expense related to stock options
issued during 1999 and the first quarter of 2000.

AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL - Total amortization of goodwill for the quarter was
comparable to the comparable quarter of the prior year.

INTEREST INCOME - Total interest income of $61 for the quarter represents income
earned on the Company 's investment of surplus cash in short term investments.
There was no interest income for the comparable quarter of the prior year.

INTEREST EXPENSE - Interest expense decreased $93 from the comparable quarter of
the prior year. This decrease is attributable to the fact that the Company had
borrowings under its bank line of credit agreement in the 1999 period but
incurred only minimum interest in the 2000 period because it had no borrowings
under the bank line of credit in that period.

The Company sold a total of 595,700 shares of its common stock on various dates
in the first quarter of 2000 for an aggregate consideration of $4,468,000 to
persons who held warrants issued in private placements by the Company in 1996
and 1997. The consideration paid per share consisted of the surrender of a
warrant with respect to one share and $7.50 in cash. The exemption claimed from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933 was Section 4(2) thereof,
exempting transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering, based upon

been issued in an earlier private placement. The shares issued on exercise of
the warrants were subject to restrictions on resale.

the Company's Common Stock at per share exercise prices of $9.25. The
consideration for such option issuances is services to the Company. The
exemption claimed from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 was Section
4(2) thereof, exempting transactions by an issuer not involving a public
offering, based on the fact that these transactions involved sales to an
institution and a single consultant, respectively, in private transactions.
